Magical semiotics and spandex
Two blogs of interest to my magical and alchemical colleagues:

The Secret Sun - blog of Christopher L Knowles, Jungian thinker and author of "Our Gods Wear Spandex", a consideration of superhero mythology/superheroes as mythology. Here's a recent piece on The Joker, the untimely death of Heath Ledger and that of the lead singer of Killing Joke - and how all that connects.

Inside the Cosmic Cube - also somewhat comic-influenced, but like Knowles exploring the symbolism of modern media - this time from a western-esoteric-alchemical angle. Here's blogger Adam Star on The Night Watch - both Rembrant and the Russian magic-war flick (but sadly not the Pratchett...). He also looks at Joker-as-alchemical-rubedo here.
